and again i have no idea if this would even work because i don't know if you are allowed to make changes like this on a companion fare after you've started the ticket.

Yeah, that sounds too confusing for this old addled brain.

I wish I knew if we were going to get an AS "gift" of more GGU's at the Holidays, or if the Virgin's are going to get everything again and we're just getting coal again. Would make using this one more palatable.
